The Haiti journey has begun !

My hubby and daughter have started their adventure. It all began the other day when the team spent 5 hours at church packing boxes and suitcases of school supplies , hygiene supplies, tools , medications, etc.

We were up at 3:00am this morning to get to the airport for 4am. The team of 11 boarded their plane at 6:30am and arrived several hours later in Port-Au-Prince after one stop over . The family members that stayed behind got together for a potluck meal earlier tonight. It was a great time, topped off by a phone call from the team.. We each got a couple of seconds to chat with our loved ones to hear that all is well.

I look forward to hearing from them whenever they can get online. They have some hard construction work ahead of them in the heat. But, I can only imagine how amazing this must seem to all of them. For 9 of them this is their first ever mission trip !

I pray God uses them in a mighty way and brings then home safe and healthy :)
